The company ultimately plans to promote over 125 events a year, showcasing more than 1,000 fighters, under the Alliance MMA umbrella. “While we plan to grow through acquisition, launching a regional promotion in Southern California will help accelerate our positioning,” said Paul K. Danner. “Our mission remains the same – to build a national footprint that includes all the major media markets to attract name brand sponsorships. We are thrilled that Eric Del Fierro has agreed to join our team to head the formation of the new promotion and oversee expansion into the Southern California region.

Del Fierro is a United States Navy veteran who went on to become a San Diego firefighter and EMT. “MMA is the world’s fastest growing sport and I am excited to join an organization that is encouraging even more growth,” said Del Fierro. “Alliance MMA provides regional promotions the opportunity to partner with a larger organization that provides extensive support and enhances collective market share and profitability of the business.” Alliance MMA completed the initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common shares and the company’s common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market, under the ticker symbol “AMMA”, on October 6.
